I need some numbers on workers’ compensation in different states. Most of my numbers come from a publication called Analysis of Workers’ Compensation Laws put out annually since 1976 by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Its predecessor publication, Analysis of Workmen’s Compensation Laws, was put out annually from the 1950s to 1975.
My period of interest is 1962 onwards, but Harvard is missing most issues from the 1960s and 1970s, and supplementing with MIT’s collection, I’m still missing the following years: 1963, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1970, 1973.
If any of you feel like checking (soon, like, within a few days?) whether your local (or university) library has this publication for these years — and, better, if you also feel like faxing me a copy of a table I’m looking for (“Income Benefits for Total Disabilities”), which should be about three pages long in each volume — I will be eternally grateful to you. (I think the Library of Congress has a complete set, but that would be going way beyond the call of duty, unless you go there all the time.)
Please write me an e-mail, volokh at fas.harvard.edu, if you can do this.
(Alternatively, you could just mail me the tables slowly, but quickly e-mail me the “maximum weekly payment” amount for the states I need, which are CA, CT, DC, FL, IL, IN, NJ, NY, OH, PA, and TX.)
